Notes. Meaning of the parameters: 1) SFH: Age – age of the main stellar population in the galaxy, in Myr; τmain – e-folding time of the main stellar population model, in Myr; Agebq – age of the burst/quench episode, in Myr; and rsfr – ratio of the SFR after/before Agebq, values higher than one correspond to an enhancement of the SFR, whereas values lower than one correspond to a decrease; 2) dust attenuation: E(B − V)lines – colour excess of the nebular line light for both the young and old populations; E(B − V)factor – reduction factor to apply on E(B − V)lines to compute E(B − V)s the stellar continuum attenuation. Both young and old populations are attenuated by E(B − V)s; UV bump wavelength – central wavelength of the UV bump in nm; UV bump width – width (FWHM) of the UV bump in nm; UV bump amplitude – amplitude of the UV bump. For the Milky Way: 3; Δδ – slope delta of the power law modifying the attenuation curve. 3) Dust emission module: α – α slope in the Dale et al. (2014) model.
